This past weekend our good friend mark got married down in St.George. We made a whole weekend trip out of it and got to spend some time with Trevor's family. My brother Ben and his wife Sharley happened to be in St. George as well and this past Saturday, they came along with me and Trevor's family to go to the lake and go boating. We all had a blast, but woke up paying the price! I can harldey move, haha and got way burnt (even after multiple sunscreen applications mind you!) But it was all well worth it :) It was a great relaxing weekend... wake-boarding, tubing, knee-boarding... nuff said.
We lost Sharley...
Classic.
Trevor got cold so he thought the life jacket would keep him warm haha (doesn't it look like Trevor's dad is watersking on Trevor's shoulder?!)
So this past week was mine and Trevor's Spring Break. We worked the first half (no bueno) and then headed down for a quick trip down to Sunny St.George to visit his family and get some sunshine. Trevor knew I had never really been to Las Vegas (except driving through a million times as a kid and maybe stopping at a buffet once which I barley even remember) so he decided to take me down for a day when we were there. I was pretty excited to finally walk around and see the place instead of just driving by. When we were down in St.George Trevor wanted to take me to go shoot some clay pigeons. He told me to grab the bullets and we were on our way. OF course AFTER we drove all the way out there and got out of the car... Trevor forgot to bring the shot gun. OH man. We didn't have time to go back and get it and come back because Trevor's mother had given us specific instructions on when we needed to be back for dinner. Instead of making the outing a waste Trevor and I stopped at a statue tribute of Sarah Sturdevant Leavitt. In case you didn't know, my maiden name is Leavitt and the Leavitt family was a big part of the settling of the city St.George. Kind of funny I married someone from there, and I am from San Diego. He grew up and went to school with more people related to me then I have probably ever known. Anyways, they have this cool statue of her and around her the statues of the heads of all her children. So I took some pictures with my great great great great grandmother Sarah, and her son Thomas Rowell Leavitt (who moved to Alberta which is why I was born there!) I must say out of all her children, at least by judgment of the statue... Thomas was definitely the best looking. Yay for my genes ;) haha.
Trevor NOT happy about forgetting the shot gun...
SUPER windy out there on top of the hills.

Kisses for the Grandpa!
See I told you he was good looking :)
Later me and Trevor played Later me and Trevor played Wii.... Is it just me or am I the ONLY one who gets super sore after playing Wii? Anyways I found out that I am amazing at online archery... yup that is right. pretty dang good. I am also good at a slicing competition. If only these gifts counted for something. that night me and Trevor and his sister Courtney and her husband Eric all went to go hot tubbing. Man I wish I had a hot tub... I would use it every night! All in all it was a great day of hanging out with family and relaxing :) Went to bed excited for Vegas in the morning!
Thanks for stopping by! My name is Alycia, and this blog has been such a fun space for me to share everything from the very meaningful, the mundane, and the frivolous stuff that falls inbetween. I guess you could say this is a digital journal of sorts! I believe that life should be enjoyed and celebrated, and invite you to join along in the party! ❤
